Hi,

After a few emails, let me formulate a concrete proposal:

(1) Andrea Diamantini maintains an up-to-date port of WebKit that runs
with Qt 4, on gitorious.org.

    (2) End of May we remove Qt 4 code paths from WebKit trunk.

This means that after the (2)nd step ends we will be able to build the Qt4+WebKitTrunk only through the gitorious repo. Right?

(3) We replace the Qt 4 based bot on build.webkit.org with the Qt 5 one
(hosted on Amazon, right?)

(4) After that we rename the QtWebKit module (and thus library) in trunk to QtWebKitWidgets. That's no change in the directory structure or file names,
just build system changes. This gives us the option of introducing a new
QtWidgets-free "QtWebKit" module later during the life-time of Qt 5,
essentially realizing a library split where QtWebKitWidgets would link against the new QtWebKit. (Note that this change doesn't affect anyone using the QML2 WK2 APIs, as those don't require direct linkage but only use dynamic plugin
imports)


I think, this will be confusing a bit for newbies, so I think it will be good to have a wiki page about this information if there will be no objections. :)


Thoughts? :)

Inlined.


Simon
